00:00 In recent times, the China-India relations have been strained.
00:05 But China, this time surprisingly, has commended Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call
00:09 for the constructive bilateral talks to resolve the ongoing border issue at the Line of Actual
00:15 Control (LAC).
00:17 The Chinese government's mouthpiece state media has termed Modi's recent statement as
00:21 "thought-provoking" while describing it as a gesture of goodwill.
00:27 Responding to PM Modi's interview with an Indian magazine, China acknowledged the importance
00:31 of a sound and stable ties between Beijing and New Delhi, agreeing that the prolonged
00:36 situation at the borders must be addressed urgently.
00:41 In his interview, PM Modi emphasized the significance of positive and constructive engagement at
00:46 both diplomatic and military levels to restore and maintain peace and tranquility along the
00:50 borders with China.
00:53 After this, the Chinese spokesperson Mao Ning acknowledged Modi's remarks, stating that
00:57 the sound and stable India-China relations serve the interests of both countries and
01:01 contributes to regional and global peace and even the development.
01:05 However, Mao again retariated that China's stance is that the boundary question does
01:09 not represent the entirety of China-India relations and should be managed appropriately
01:13 with bilateral relationship.
01:16 China also expressed hope that India will approach bilateral relations from a strategic
01:20 perspective focusing on building trust, engaging in dialogue and cooperation in handling differences
01:25 appropriately and stabilize the relationship.
01:28 The interview came amid China's renaming attempt of India's Arunachal Pradesh as Zhangnan.
01:33 Recently, China renamed 30 districts of Arunachal Pradesh into Chinese names which drew widespread
01:39 condemnation.
01:41 But now, Modi's remarks were welcomed by the official Chinese media which viewed them as
01:46 a step towards peaceful and stable India-China relation.
01:50 Several other Chinese media also characterized Modi's statement as a gesture of goodwill
01:54 suggesting that it might pay way for resolving the long-standing border dispute through fair
01:59 and reasonable means.
02:01 But the main question despite all this is that will China back off from its original
02:06 stance?
